Natural Math has a tool for making Special Snowflakes, designed after a paper and scissor activity idea Chrissy Akers shared. Usually I get one or two snowflake moderation requests at a time, but one day, ten came at once! Every one was a name, with character traits in comments, such as adventurous or creative. I emailed the creator, Angela. Here is our exchange:
MariaD: "Are these all your kids? Looks like you had some fun activity with your family or a math club!"
Angela: "Lol. I did have fun! Yes, I have 9 kids and it was so cool seeing them each represented by a beautiful and unique snowflake. Thanks so much!"
Each snowflake is a mini-puzzle. Here they are, with descriptions! Can you read what each snowflake says?
Guided Home Learning... Learning at home on the wings of angels.
